Herschel Walker is at the moment working to be the only real Republican senator from Georgia – and there’s so much fallacious with the previous soccer participant as a candidate. The mainstream media has accomplished a great job, for essentially the most half, exposing his shortcomings.
However there’s one trait in Herschel that hasn’t been highlighted by the media. Herschel seems to have a delicate, but apparent deep contempt for Black ladies and their accomplishments.
Media Take Out has listened to tons of of hours of speeches by Herschel (which was a reasonably painful job), and in doing so, it was hanging that Herschel didn’t as soon as say something constructive a couple of Black lady, aside from his personal mom.
However what was much more hanging, was how the accused abuser would use private assaults in opposition to all of the Black ladies with whom he disagreed with politically.
You would even hear in his voice – what seems like ”hate,” when he mentioned Black ladies.
Herschel is a staunch conservative, and so he disagrees politically with most Democrats. However Media Take Out noticed that when Herschel disagrees with males – together with Black males like his opponent present Senator Warnock – he selected to assault their political ideology.
Right here’s a video displaying what Herschel mentioned about among the most distinguished Black ladies in America:
In stark distinction, nonetheless, every time Herschel disagreed with a Black lady, he resorted to non-public assaults – and instructed that the ladies have been one way or the other “unfit” for the positions they earned.
Herschel’s obvious anti-Black lady sentiment was on full show, when he criticized gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams. In a June interview with a far-right podcasters Clay Travis and Henry Sexton, Herschel angrily mentioned that the girl working for the Georgia Governor’s race ought to, “depart Georgia.”
Equally, throughout an April 2022 interview with a far-right discuss present on CD Information, Herschel angrily mentioned two of essentially the most highly effective Black Ladies on this planet – Vice President Kamala Harris and Supreme Courtroom Justice Ketanji Jackson. within the interview, Herschel’s voice trembled with contempt, as he mentioned the 2 ladies, whom he claimed ”don’t deserve” their positions, ignoring the many years of onerous work every put in.
Subsequent, in a November interview with proper wing commentator Charlie Kirk, Herschel lambasted MSNBC anchor Pleasure Reid as ”disgusting,” and mentioned that Pleasure, a profitable journalist and groundbreaking discuss present host on MSNBC, ”hasn’t accomplished something however discuss on TV.”
Lastly, Herschel Walker saved his highest contempt for one among his babys moms, whom the soccer participant described as “Black” in earlier interviews. The candidate for Georgia senate referred to as his 10 12 months previous son’s mom a “liar,” and instructed NBC Information’ Kristen Welker that he has “no purpose” to talk together with her.
Herschel has by no means publicly referred to as out any of the opposite ladies – all White – who’ve youngsters by him, despite the fact that one has accused him of violence in opposition to her. He additionally by no means referred to as his son Christian Walker a “liar” – despite the fact that Christian accused the previous soccer participant of violence and neglect.
The query of Walker’s future is now within the arms of Black males. In accordance with political specialists all of it comes right down to – whether or not Black males are keen to face up and vote in opposition to Herschel Walker. Media Take Out spoke with Crowdshot Methods, one of many prime political technique teams which focuses on African American voters, and so they instructed us that Black ladies have determined to vote in opposition to Herschel, however Black males are nonetheless on the fence.
In a written assertion Crowdshot instructed us, “Black ladies are lining up in document numbers to early vote in opposition to Herschel Walker [in the Georgia run-off which ends December 6th], however Black males haven’t been as motivated to get out and vote.”
We surprise what’s going to it take to get Black males motivated sufficient to go to the polls ….
